I don't expect older people to understand the difference. But that's big

It's really not, as you will still have to get your mail, open it, read the instructions, obtain your electronic code, dial the phone number or login to the website and enter said code, cast your vote, confirm and disconnect.

The old way was actually simpler.
This way is easier to count and cheaper, but not any easier for the Millennials, sorry.

The voting for the strike authorization took more of my time than a paper ballot.

As I was saying..

It's simple. Vote and get as many people around you to vote. Let the majority decide the master.

This is true but not entirely.

Many people do not have a mail box right outside their door. Some have to drop it off at a community mail box or other areas. When it's the only piece of mail that you actually mail out you tend to forget to take it.

I think last contract was somewhere around 35%???

Were they able to vote online last contract? If not and we have online voting maybe we might get increased participation?

 

[DR7]

So is this "tentative/handshale agreement", by definition, for purposes of the IBT Constitution verbage quoted, a "last, best, and final offer"?

Doesn’t it seem strange that the exact day the TA was released...the current contract was extended???

Yeah but who's counting the votes? Lol

It was 39% and it barely passed. No online voting last time.

I think more people will vote , easier or not, because some of them can't put their damn phones down

I highlighted the question mark for you in my repeated question?

....but let me rephrase.

What constitutes a "last, best, and final offer"?
Is it as simple as uttering the words, or are there forms that need to be submitted, etc?
Can one or both parties make the declaration?

What constitutes a "last, best, and final offer"?

If you remember in 97, the Union was not satisfied with what the company was offering.

They were basically at an impasse.... and the company said "take it or leave it".

Is it as simple as uttering the words, or are there forms that need to be submitted, etc?

For documentation purposes, I'm sure the company would put it in writing.

Can one or both parties make the declaration?

I don't like trying to answer questions on behalf of the IBT, as I am not their designee

on matters on like this. So.... lets say they are my "opinions" or educated guess.
